Is my gal likely a manx?
This is my lady, Artemis. I fostered her for the humane society and then adopted her. I've owned a lot of cats and she always looked different to me. I wasn't sure if her tail was due to her birth situation or her genetics, but I've always suspected she might be part manx. I'd love your takes on it!
Here's why I think she's manx:
Long back legs
Occasional bunny hops
She's CHATTY
Super tight bond to me: she's my shadow
Her basepaws DNA test says she has a genetic mutation for a short tail
But I realize she might not be a manx. It feels weird to end up with one from the shelter.
